Our last night in Gotham City and we decided to go to one of Dick’s favorite places. It’s a French Bakery and it’s open 24 hours! Dick tells me this used to be a factory that was converted into a commercial shopping strip. Amelie’s French Bakery is one of business here. Inside is an eclectic-style [...]

Starbucks Therapy.
With my sister-in-law in town, what else do we do but have COFFEE. And although I go to Starbucks for my me-time and don’t like to bring the kids, Benz is still a baby and mostly sleeps. Plus, Dick would be in a panic if Benz started to cry. He would call me or text [...]
Your Daily Benz: Mommy and Daddy Vomit Victims.
Benz is such a sweet, innocent thing that you just can’t be upset with him at all, ever. Seriously, look at this yummy, chubby thing. I totally LOVE baby’s hands and feet. So yummilicious like mini sausages. Benz is like a little monkey the way his feet clasp together. It’s like his feet are saying [...]
Jane has no qualms about child labor. Everyone helps clean the house!
We had spent our first night at Mr. Bean’s house so the kids could play. The next day, it was time to get to work on our rental property. The first thing we always do when we stay at one of our properties is give it a good cleaning. I don’t like to stay where other [...]
Road tripping with my THREE kids: Benz’s first trip to Gotham City.
We had one of our rentals empty out so it was time for me to head to Gotham City again and take care of business. Remember, by cleaning crew…I’m referring to myself. The last time we were in Gotham City was during my pregnancy and I had seen our Art Lounge for the first time [...]
Your daily Benz: Sweet Benz and Mommy.
Benz is constantly changing. If I just take a picture from a different angle, he looks different to me. Of all my kids, Benz seems to have the least hair so far. I know, it’s still early but both my girls had tons of hair by now. Well, I guess you’re taking after your [...]
We head to the public market…where the funnel cakes and hot dogs is all that catches my attention.
During coffee with Lucy (and watching her super brilliant Oscar get his momma to give him a treat even if he didn’t have to obey her command…that was genius.) I had remembered that my mom told me they had taken an old run down mall and turned it into a public market but I couldn’t [...]
Lucy shows me, repeatedly, how “smart” Oscar is.
Naturally, while Lucy was in town, we went to have us some coffee at the Starbucks. The kids had asked to see if they could come and, after having taken them the day before, I said, “No! No kids today!” Plus, its three times more expensive when I take them and I have to reserve [...]
Your daily Benz: To TUCK or not to TUCK…my sweet little sailor.
My lovely seester, Lucy Lu, comes in town to visit us again and has a gift for my Benz. It’s a sailor outfit bought from H&M. We don’t have H&M in Metropolis and I SOOOO wish we did! This outfit was only like $6. Aunt Lucy, please stop squishing me!! Much better. What you [...]
Your daily Benz: Notorious B(enz).I.G.
Sweet Benz was chillaxing in the pool in a floating device that my friend showed me he had for his baby. I got it at Target for $20 and it even has a cover that snaps in to shade him but I haven’t used it yet. We decided we needed a floaty because holding [...]
